I've read several recipes/web pages on making oils, and I noticed most call for grapeseed oil or almond oil to use as a base.

I don't really have access to those; we don't stock them in the house, and I'd rather not be asked why I want such-and-such oil come grocery day. Does anyone know if olive oil would make a good base oil? We have that in abundance. I have yet to find any receipes that mention using it as a substitute, but nothing I've read so far says you can't, either. I just don't want to try to make an infused oil and have it turn out smelling rancid or anything if I can avoid it.
